Aero Dynamic has a thank you message for fans

Aero Dynamic Daisy and her family recently lost their house and belongings to a fire. After that tragedy, the Aeros community stepped up big to help her out. Donations from the organization, friends and family and a fundraiser at the last Aeros home game when a $10 donation would equal two tickets to a future game were all a big part of the push. The organization also ordered her new uniforms and track suits. There may also be an auction/benefit at a future game.

Daisy has a special message for everyone who has assisted her during the tragedy and hard times:

“When the accident happened the Aeros staff immediately sent $200 my way. They were all very good about keeping in touch and on a daily basis would contact me to make sure I was OK. Once word got out, I was told that many people were calling the Aeros office asking how and what they could do to help. My kindergarten teacher who was my favorite teacher growing up and who I haven’t seen in years also contacted the Aeros to find a way to get in contact with me. That’s when they brainstormed and decided to do a fundraiser for me at the game. A little over $3,000 was raised that night.

That game, my teammates also surprised me with baskets of clothes, blankets, practice wear and every day items every girl needs like new blow drier, straighter, curler, wand, makeup and etc. Along with my favorite kind of cake, strawberry.

It was hard to come back and put on a big smile, to pretend that nothing was wrong. But I was determined to do it, there was no way I wasn’t going to be at that game after all the love and support I had received. People were coming up to me with gift cards, Toyota employees were stopping me in the halls and elevators to give me donations. The Aeros had scored early in the game and after my goal dance a big group of people sitting in the section where I had just performed all stood up and hugged me. That’s when I realized there I was doing my job, cheering and dancing for an amazing team and organization ,yet just about everyone in that building was cheering for me. That is a memory I will hold in my heart and a moment I will forever be thankful for. “
